Secret Code is the classic Codebreaker or Mastermind type program.

The computer will choose a number using the digits 1 to 9 and your task is to work out the mystery number using your powers of deduction. You may choose the length of the number - 3,4 or 5 digits - and can play alone or with another player. With two players you will both be trying to guess the same number so don't give too much away! Enter your guess by choosing a series of numbers from the keyboard. If you make an error before the last number press the space bar twice to erase the line. Each time you enter your guess you will be given clues on whether your number is right. You will see a '1' for each number which is right and in the right place and a '0' for each number which is right but in the wrong place. If nothing is shown, none of your numbers are right. You have TEN guesses. If you run out the mystery number will be revealed. To go on to the next number press any key except SPACE. Press SPACE to start afresh.
